Bought mine on June 16th and have 4039 miles on it...however...this past week I finally established for the first in my life the making of a "Garage Queen" by my finding and buying a very nice road worthy and reliable beater for $1200.00....and for the first time I have finally been able to experience the joys of just letting my good car (the 370Z) just sit in the garage all week for every week and be pampered with polish, wax and other cleaning products so that it can just be driven on weekends and be all shiney and well kept.
Ah finally...I have obtained the ranks of show car nirvana....

I was driving the 370Z to Cincinnati from Columbus Monday through Friday for the past month which is 1200 miles per week. That is how I put the 4000+ miles on the 370Z my first month of ownership. My previous car was a 2008 Shelby Mustang GT and I put 57,000+ miles on it the first year. I just didn't want this to happen to this new Z car. I found the beater through the Craigslist...The previous owner permanently lost his drivers license and desparately needed the cash to pay off the fines he was slammed with. He had just overhauled the engine prior to his getting in trouble. He removed the stock quad-4 and dropped in a 6-pack because the quad-4 had a history of known problems. I just happened to take a gander at the Craigslist before I was going off to buy a Honda Del Sol for $3500. The Pontiac wasn't listed more than 20 minutes earlier by the previous owner. I prayed hard for finding a realiable beater and I received the answer I needed. Goes to show you prayer works. I have put 1200 miles in the beater this past week and so far everything is still working perfect. And the average gas mileage is 27 MPG. So I am just so
